Template:Navigation CR A static ability is an ability of an object that is neither an activated ability nor a triggered ability; it is an ability that is always "on", and cannot be turned "off". Flying and fear are examples of static abilities.

Static abilities apply only when the object they appear on is in play unless the card specifies otherwise or the ability could only logically function in some other zone. Static abilities are always 'on' and do not use the stack. The ability takes effect as soon as the card enters the appropriate zone and only stops working when the card leaves that zone (or it says it does).
